With the demise of Brasserie La Coze at Lenox Square, and the closing of Seeger's, Joel is firmly at the head of fine dining royalty in Atlanta. Located in a beautiful condo, at the intersection of West Paces/Northside Dr., it has a presence all it's own. Chef Joel's menu was outstanding. Starting with a divine Fois Gras w/pear chutney, and Peeky Toe Crab Cakes w/lemon aioli, set the buds to throbbing! My entree was Roasted Duck w/cabbage and cider jus. Pure heaven. My partner had Braised Beef Short Ribs w/artichokes, and red wine sauce. I reached across the table for a bite, and it just melted away. The pairing of the French wines, was right on target, as well as the super professional service. This is strickly Five Stars! Special occasion or not! Chef Joel also offers a $39.00. Spa Menu, that changes weekly! And for really up-town after five drinks, come to the bar, and treat yourself to one great martini. Very nice Buckhead crowd!
Pros: Award Winning French Cuisine! Beautiful Service & Interiors!
Cons: Wish We Could Afford To Eat Here Everynight!
